    What is so funny Khan is very beatable. McCloskey will stop him.

    The date for this fight is wrong. It will be in June sometime and should be in the kings hall. I would say that Paul will do lauri inside 7 rounds! Hopefully he comes out of this fight with no injuries and gets a move on with his career. He's a quality operator but time is not on his side. Hopefully I will have my 1st 8 rounder on this bill :D

    I agree, I reckon McCloskey does him within the distance.. One of my favourite boxers at the moment, so slicka dn seems to be getting better.
    Hopefully you'll be on the card Carlos, would make a decent night of fighting. Might just head up to Belfast for it.

    He's progressing way too slow, 8 months to make a mandatory defence against a shot fighter at Paul's age is not good

    was thinkin the same thing meself.

    Aint been in Belfast for a fight since Sinclair-Pryce (listen to be makin out that I was there loads of times - the was the only time I was at a fight in Belfast!)

    Ulster Hall or Kings Hall or something like that would be g-g-g-ggrrreeeat!

    It would be great to see a decent card in Belfast I was tempted to go to one of the Rogan v Sexton fights but the support fights were pretty poor.

    Thats generally the only thing stopping me in past, the poor undercards. That, and the fact that generally in the past there is usually another show on somehwere else with either a better main event or overall better card...

    Having said that, i've heard great things about the kings hall, so its definitely down on my list of places to go see a fight soon.

    its just a big square shaped hall that old fights happened in, its ridiculous when theres a brand new state of the art 12,000 seater in the city centre that people still want it there. stick lindsay defence on the undercard and rogan and bobs ur uncle

    Lauri is EU champion, McCloskey is EBU(European).
